Lo, children are an heritage of the Lord: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.

Children are described in Scripture as a gift and a blessing from the Lord, a reward from His hand. This view reminds us of the intrinsic value and purpose that children hold in God’s eyes. Rather than viewing children as burdens, we are encouraged to see them as precious, entrusted to us by the Creator. They are not only a blessing to parents but also to the broader community and to the kingdom of God. Raising children with this perspective transforms the way we approach parenting. Instead of being overwhelmed by the challenges of raising children, we can rejoice in the opportunity to care for these little ones who are entrusted to us. We can view every moment spent with them as a precious opportunity to shape their hearts, guiding them in the ways of the Lord. In this way, parents can find joy and purpose in their roles, knowing they are participating in God’s plan for the next generation.
